I wouldn't say they were "aweful," they were just pretty forgetable and "blah."

I thought they were better than forgetable. Actually, I enjoyed them as a set up for Planet Hulk.

Ok..just me then

It just kinda frustrated me how little happenned..i think thats my big problem with Way is he takes 5 issue to achieve nothing(like Wolvy Origins and Endings). Look at the covers for those issues, theres 3 covers of the hulk fighting the satellite or something..madness.

If I read them, as I probably should have, as stand alone issues or a standalone arc, for Hulk then I'd be right there with you. I bought the trade as a set up for Planet Hulk so I thought of it as one big prologue leading to a larger story rather than a story in and of itself. The whole point was to trick Hulk into space and that's what it did. But I see your point completely, looking at it from a different perspective.

Well, not better than Superman/Batman #26. Sorry, b_c, that one hit on just too many levels.

I heartily disagree on that one. I'm not going into my reasons for not really caring too much for that issue for fear I'd be labeled an unfeeling jerk.

But, lets just say I didn't buy into that issue at all. Its great they'll sell the stuff for a college fund, and I'm sorry for Mr. Loeb's tragedy.

But, I honestly doubt I'll remember this book two months from now much less two years from now.

I couldn't possibly disagree with you more Mike ... for the first time in my life a comicbook brought me to tears! That's something that I'll never forget.
